Sanborn maps have wealth of information on McCook homes

To answer my own question, which I seem to be doing more and more as I get older, the Water Works Park is today our Norris Park. How, you might ask, do I know this tidbit of history? No, I am not THAT old! I know it because the Genealogy library has Sanborn Maps for 1889, 1897, 1909 and 1921. The 1909 map shows the water works park location.
